 a face portion;   a back portion; and   at least one reinforcing portion that extends from an upper edge portion of the back portion toward a toe-side portion of a top line.   
     
     
         2 . The golf club head according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the golf club head is a pocket cavity iron type golf club head in which a pocket is formed between a lower portion of a back surface of the face portion and the back portion, and   the reinforcing portion extends so as to cross above the pocket.   
     
     
         3 . The golf club head according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the reinforcing portion is formed by a member different from a remaining portion of the golf club head, and   one end portion of the different member is fixed to the upper edge portion, and the other end portion of the different member is fixed to the toe-side portion.   
     
     
         4 . The golf club head according to  claim 1 , comprising
 a plurality of the reinforcing portions,   wherein a width of the reinforcing portion in a direction intersecting an extending direction of the reinforcing portion is not less than 3 mm and not more than 10 mm.   
     
     
         5 . The golf club head according to  claim 3 , wherein
